METOC METEOROLOGY & OCEANOGRAPHY
Supercomputer fuses worldwide METOC data to feed numerical weather prediction models The Fleet Numerical Meteorology and Oceanography Center (FNMOC) in Monterrey, CA and the Naval Oceanographic Of f ice (NAVO) at the Stennis Space Center in Mississippi are strategic repositories for Navy METOC data; they receive and process bulk observation data and run cyber secure numerical prediction models for Fleet use. NITES-Next and METMF(R) NEXGEN retrieve data from these ashore commands; LBS-UUV FoS and HWDDC deliver data to them
OIS sustains global oceanographic and hydrographic surveying; POPS is the IT infrastructure providing environmental prediction across multiple classif ication enclaves for geophysical data the Navy collects, processes, and distributes
Weather radar operators look for the optimal conditions to conduct missions Extracts and converts data from surveillance radars to generate weather situational awareness
Organically detects and displays storm cell movement, precipitation intensity, radial winds, & atmospheric turbulence
O�-boards data to the Fleet Numerical Meteorology and Oceanography Center to directly inf luence regional weather prediction models and enhance real-time operations analysis
Continuous operation and worldwide deployment help Warf ighters navigate dynamic battlef ield conditions Compact, HMMWV-mounted mobile forecast system characterizes the current and future battlespace
Hosts a radar, sensors, computing equipment, and forecasting tools that collect, process, and transmit METOC data, which impacts mission ef fectiveness and weapons system performance
C2 equipment processes data on site; reaches back to CONUS military weather authorities for global-scale analysis
Enables undersea dominance in support of anti-submarine warfare, mine countermeasures, & special operations LBS-Gliders (LBS-G) provide long endurance sensing of ocean thermal and visible light transmission properties critical to weapon and sensor performance, planning, and execution
Self-positively and -negatively buoyant; along the path, LBS-G measure temperature, salinity, and pressure to determine sound speed in the ocean
LBS-Autonomous Undersea Vehicles (LBS-AUV) provide battlespace awareness of the undersea environment; LBS-AUV expand sensing capabilities in contested areas to ensure access and reduce risk in Fleet operations
LBS-AUV collect high-resolution bathymetric and bottom imagery for use in undersea warfare planning/execution and safety of navigation
Sailors must predict the environment to know the impact of their operation One-stop-shop of tools and tactical decision aids on-site meteorologists and oceanographers use to develop forecasts and predict impact to electromagnetic-spectrum propagation and Naval operations
Fuses atmospheric, oceanographic, and solar-lunar data to determine the ef fect of the physical environment on air, surface, and subsurface platforms and their associated weapons systems’ ability to execute missions
Navy C4I Enterprise processing, exploitation, and dissemination software tool hosted and operating on CANES hardware; accesses organic METOC data and global information produced by military METOC information centers
Software-centric IT streamlining program executes agile software development to ensure �exibility in meeting emergent requirements and addressing Fleet user priorities
